‘OLED better watch its back’: LG’s C6 OLED TV is one of the best I’ve tested this year, but when I put it side-by-side with the Sony Bravia 7 II RGB TV, the close battle shocked me
TCL, Samsung, LG and Sony are major names who have adopted the new technology, which was dubbed as being a potential ‘OLED killer’, thanks to boasting higher brightness and bolder colors, and claiming to deliver black tones to rival the best OLED TVs.One of those new TVs has just entered our lab: the Sony Bravia 7 II. The more affordable model of Sony’s RGB TVs, sitting below the flagship Sony Bravia 9 II, the Bravia 7 II is priced fairly similarly to rival mid-range OLEDs. So, I decided to see how the Bravia 7 II would fare against the five-star LG C6, one of the best TVs I’ve tested in 2026 so far.For these tests, both TVs were set to their respective, out-of-the-box Filmmaker Modes.
